Mother Nature Causes Epic Light Show

If you have lived in North Texas for any length of time, you have gotten used to the Spring storms. These storms suddenly wreck havoc with gusting winds and bowling ball sized hail (OK so maybe that's an exaggeration, but not by much). May seems to be the primo month for this to happen. Remember the May 5th Hail Storm of 1995 that injured dozens at Mayfest?

I have seen so much hail, that it looks like it has snowed. I have seen fences ripped up and mangled by twisters. I have even seen rain falling sideways. I have never seen anything like the chain reaction of explosions caused by this lightening strike in Ft. Worth. You may tempted to stop watching. Don't. Play through it all.
